In a surprising turn of events, Alpha Diallo’s transfer saga has taken a new direction. While several Spanish insiders had indicated that the Monaco forward’s move to FC Barcelona was a done deal, it now seems he has committed to a contract with Dubai. This latest development, though still unofficial, comes from Italian insider Matteo Andreani.
If his move to the United Arab Emirates is confirmed, the Euroleague Defense Player of the Year could be reunited with familiar faces. In addition to Élie Okobo, whose signing is reportedly almost secured, Jaron Blossomgame may also join Dubai, where Mam Jaiteh already plays.
Xavi Pascual Also a Target?
Despite the recent arrival of Aleksander Sekulic at the end of the season, Dubai’s management is reportedly already seeking a replacement for the Slovenian coach. According to Andreani, they are in contact with Barça coach Xavi Pascual and are willing to pay his €300,000 buyout clause.
